Ingredients You’ll Need:
Before we dive into cooking, make sure you have all of these goodies on hand:
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 red onion, cut into wedges
- 1 cup pineapple chunks
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Skewers (wooden or metal)
Instructions to Get You Cooking:
Alright, let’s fire up that grill and get to it!
- Start by soaking your wooden skewers in water for about 30 minutes to keep them from burning on the grill. If you’re using metal skewers, you can skip this step.
- In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, ground ginger, salt, and pepper. This tasty marinade will infuse those shrimp and veggies with all the right flavors.
- Add the shrimp and vegetables to the marinade. Toss everything to ensure they’re well coated, and let them marinate for about 30 minutes at room temperature.
- Once the shrimp and veggies have soaked in the goodness, it’s time to assemble your kabobs. Thread the shrimp, bell peppers, onion, and pineapple onto the skewers, alternating for that cute and colorful presentation.
- Preheat your grill to medium heat. Grill the kabobs for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until the shrimp turns pink and is cooked through. Remember, don’t overdo it! We want juicy, tender shrimp.
- Once done, remove from the grill and let them sit for a minute before serving. You can also brush on extra marinade while grilling for that extra kick!
And there you have it, fam! Serve your Hawaiian Shrimp Kabobs hot off the grill with a side of rice or a fresh summer salad, and watch your loved ones devour them in no time. Enjoy every bite and don’t forget to savor the good vibes!
